T.R.U.E. Success Horse Riding Lessons-

At Crossroads Ranch, we have a different approach than most ranches when it comes to riding because we believe that horseback riding is much more than sitting on a horse and learning to steer. We take a holistic approach to western-based riding with a philosophy that is whole-rider and whole-horse based. We believe that in order to become a safe, competent rider you must first learn about horse psychology and body language, motivation and fear, and safe handling and training.

With our curriculum based horsemanship courses (the only ones in the state) you will be taught the basics like equine first aid and hoof care as well as complex horse training methods like one rein stops, sending, and pressure based movement. These tools will not only make you a safer rider, but they will give you an understanding of horses that will make riding a much more enjoyable experience.

Adult Horse Riding Lessons-

Whether you're relatively new to horses or have owned them for years and want to better train your horses or fix behavioral challenges, our adult (12 and older) lessons have a comprehensive and detailed curriculum based focus designed to give beginning and advanced riders the skills and knowledge to understand horse behavior, care and riding. By providing a full ranch experience through horse interaction, exploring different riding situations (not just going around in circles in a round pen), and horse psychology, riders will leave each lesson with the knowledge in how to create a horse/rider relationship based on Trust, Respect, Unity and Expectations. Adult riders progress through a 3-phase track to horsemanship mastery with Path of the Horseman, Path of the Horsemaster and Path of the Scholar.

Youth Horse Riding Lessons-

Our youth (ages 5 to 11) lessons pull from the curriculum that the adults use and teach young riders important information like the six signs of horse behavior, how to tack up and horse as well as standard riding techniques. These classes are designed to be fun, build upon the student’s interest in horses and give them the necessary tools to become a confident and happy rider.

Each one of us has a responsibility as horsemen to train, guide and teach our horses to be willing partners. Achieving T.R.U.E. Success means learning to truly communicate and train a well-rounded horse for the purpose of pleasure or sport.

Brandie Heidenway is a graduate of the horse science program at MTSU and has over 20 years of teaching and training experience. I have a strong dressage background, but appreciate and teach good horsemanship that works across the disciplines. My lesson program focuses on safety for horse and rider, horsemanship, equitation, total horse care and well being, and development of the relationship between horse and rider. I firmly believe attitude is everything, attitude is contagious, and a positive attitude goes a long ways over aptitude. I teach all ages and ability levels. I have students from 5 to 65, regardless of where you're at with your riding career, if you love horses and really want to better your horsemanship skills and have fun horseback, give me a call. We have a variety of lesson horses to help you on your horsemanship journey! I also board and train, so you're always welcome to bring your own horse for lessons as well.... See More

“I believe that horses teach us many Life Lessons.” There are so many benefits to horseback riding. Self confidence, Trust, Team work & Fitness to name just a few.
The education with horses never ends.
I have been riding horses since the age of eight years old.Also showing them as a teen.I wanted to further my education to become a true professional in the horse industry. Certification at Meredith Manor was key. I have also been fortunate to work/ride- hands on. With some of our nations greatest trainers. Competing with Reining horses on a a national level.
I consistently strive to seek more knowledge & information "Based on Fact" of this majestic animal! It never gets old. Yet,I truly feel my greatest teacher of all is THE HORSE.
My lessons come from each horse daily. Over the many years of my career. I have worked hard to understand their language. Which is very different from ours. In return, I have learned how to listen to them, yet remain the Leader. They dont mind,as long as you Earn it!
This is what I want to share/teach with each of my students. We all work as a team. It has been a beautiful journey.
I am forever.. ..a "Student of the Horse”.
There are things, Beginner Riders ~
need to learn about horses before they ever get on one.That is a huge missing piece for most. I want to help you understand how to communicate with them on the ground and in the saddle. Building Trust-Respect and Confidence ~ Guided with positive instruction.Horse handling-grooming-how to saddle and mostly RIDING.
I feel that a “fundamental understanding” of horses & riding. Will open up a whole new world of possibilities and enjoyment! It is a lifetime skill. EVERYONE has to start somewhere.
For the Advanced Rider ~ I am very confident I can help you develop more precise coordination of your body and your aides.Balance & timing are essential. Along with goal setting-hard work & dedication
So that you & your horse can begin to function as ONE. Competing with a much sharper edge- for today’s highly competitive show world! It is very rewarding when you have students that have earned National & Collegiate Titles.
Proving what can be achieved with a Calm-Attentive-Willing-horse. Trained with
finesse not force.
I specialize~ in the sport of Reining.
It doesn’t get any better than that.
